🌟 Servicing Our Schools: A Partnership for Our Community 🌟
We’re proud to celebrate the 8th year of Servicing Our Schools, a wonderful partnership between Chesapeake Public Schools and the dedicated service members of Naval Support Activity Hampton Roads! 🏫⚓️
On Wednesday, August 28, our amazing volunteers worked together on a variety of projects to make a positive impact for students and staff. From weeding gardens 🌱 to assembling library equipment 📚, setting up shelves 🛠️, hanging posters 🖼️, and more — their efforts helped make our schools a better place to learn and grow!
Thank you to everyone who contributed their time, energy, and heart to this special event. Together, we’re building stronger schools and a stronger community! 💙
